Candidate Journals

King Tiger Tae Kwon Do Black Belt candidates blog daily about their journey: their thoughts and feelings, their struggles and successes; their pain and their encouragement. Follow along on their journey; words of encouragement are always welcome!

After finally beginning the cycle I didn't expect what we would really need to do. I thought that it would probably be things like a lot of exercises and curriculum but I was indeed wrong. You're going to need a lot of motivation and endurance to complete this cycle, as long as a lot of homework to do while you're not training. Make sure to do...

Make sure to do everything even if you don't want to do it, the things for you to do quickly piles up and now your behind.

Good evening everyone, hope your day is going well. I woke up with immense muscle pain from the pre test (even though it was Saturday) mostly my core and arms which is great, a big sign of improvement. I will post my pull ups tomorrow when my arms loosen back up again cause the pain is not letting me do my pull ups correctly.

Good evening everyone hope your day is going well. Yesterday I finally finished my written test questions BEFORE you say anything I have a very good reputation for memorizing these types of things. After school every Wednesday I had to memorize a few bible verses for… 8 years, since I was a little kid in pre-k. So I'll be studying, cya!

Today i woke up and remember I switched to PE instead of health class which is what i had (from school). Since middle school PE is consecutively more complex and harder; it counted to some minutes to my requirements. Also I was surprised with a new dog :D

Good afternoon everyone, today like everyone is talking about right now, "the kickathon" i got myself a grand total of 1.35k kicks. I was a little disappointed that I ran out of time and didn't get 1.5k. But man, that kickathon went by fast. People mustve done like double bon bons or something.

Good evening everyone! Hope you guys are having a good day, today was a normal day as usual... BUT! with no "school". That means extra time to do my requirements and not have to go through another math class. I enjoyed the small break I had and caught up on some stuff.

Happy Sunday everyone! Hope you are having a good morning so far. Today will just be another average day in the cycle. 5 minutes of this and here and there and so on. Running is now a big challenge because of school. mine personally ends at 4:30 and taekwondo starts almost after that so yeah... But i still manage.

So when this morning i went to harrisburg park to run my 2 miles. there was the lightest rain ever. not to crazy right? so after that i kept running almost done with 2 miles until it started raining super hard.

Good evening to everyone, hope you had a good day. Today was like any other kind of day just without a class. Maybe caught up on some homework or remembered some poomsaes you forgot. It all counts and it will be worth it in the end. Good night to everyone.

Day 3

These days are very hard right now. My body is getting used to all of these intense workouts, it can get fun if you put in some effort. Keep doing your essays and journals, if you get lazy and don't do it, you will fall behind and not accomplish everything.

Day 2

Good Morning to everyone. I'm surprised to say this but even though we are all only 2 days in, it has been quite a bit of a challenge. I thought it would be workouts and curriculum and stuff like that but i was certainly wrong. you will really need to push yourself even if you're tired or just don't want to do it. You also will have a lot of homework (and any other requirements) so do it before anything else or you will get behind.
